Chapter 4: The Shadow in the Cave

"It's the first time I've had so many injuries. ”

After eating the last energy pill on his body to recover his strength, and also checking himself, Chen Zong couldn't help but show a wry smile, there were scars on his back, chest, arms, and thighs, either the claw marks of demon beasts, or tooth marks, some light and some heavy, but the bleeding had stopped, and the wound had also coagulated a layer of blood scabs.

"But it was great luck to survive last night. ”

"I don't know what happened to Brother Chen Chong and the others?"

The appearance of the third-level demon beast heavy armor brute bull directly crushed everyone's resistance and shattered everything in the camp, which was unmatched, coupled with the arrival of more demon beasts, everyone could not gather at all, they could only fight on their own, and finally were forced to disperse.

The morning sun rose, and the golden light shone brightly, dispelling the residual chill of the night, making Chen Zong feel a trace of warmth.

I don't know if it was because of the attack of the demon beasts last night, but now it is quiet, and the scenery has a unique beauty.

Chen Zong didn't dare to take it lightly, if he guessed correctly, here, it should be deeper than the place where the ore vein is, and the deeper it goes, the more dangerous it is.

"Regain your strength and get out of here. Chen Zong said secretly.

He is not like Tang Junluo, Li Zhenshi, Zhao Wangcheng and others, when he goes out to practice, he will definitely follow the escort of the masters above the Qi and Blood Realm, if he is unlucky and encounters a second-level demon beast, it is enough to put himself in a life and death crisis, let alone a third-level demon beast.

Pay attention to the movements around you, run the True Sword Heavenly Skill, and quickly recover the exhausted qi and blood power at a speed that can be clearly sensed.

Half an hour later, the power of qi and blood is fully recovered, and the physical strength is also fully restored, but there are more scars with body movements, which will cause bursts of discomfort and pain.

Jumping lightly, jumping on the boulder and looking out, the eyes are full of mountains, forests and plants, for a person who enters Fulong Mountain for the first time, it is difficult to distinguish the direction clearly, and it is easy to get lost.

"In which direction is Fengwu City?" Chen Zong looked at the rising sun, the place where the rising sun rose was fixed, and with this as a basis, he might be able to find a way back to Fengwu City.

Just looking at it, Chen Zong was a little confused, after all, he lacked experience in surviving in the wild.

"I guess that's the direction. The tone of uncertainty was uncertain, but there was no better choice, jumping off the boulder, Chen Zong took a step and strode in the chosen direction.

The grass and trees were vigorous, and he had to open the way with his sword, and he had to be vigilant at all times.

When you are tired, find a place with a relatively wide view to rest for a while, and after resting, move on.

"It's ...... Prograss ......" swept his gaze and found a small reddish-brown grass under a large tree, which looked tough: "It seems that there should be thirty or forty years of age." ”

It was an unexpected surprise, so Chen Zong dug up this grass and brought it with him.

The morning sun rose and turned into a scorching sun, and Chen Zong also had several herbs hanging from his shoulders, all of which were herbs of more than ten years.

When you are hungry, you pick some wild fruits, and after identifying them as non-toxic, you will make food to satisfy your hunger, and it is not easy to eat sour and astringent, but in order to maintain your physical strength, you have to eat.

I don't know when, dark clouds emerged from all directions, and they converged one after another, blocking the sunlight and darkening the heavens and the earth.

As he walked, Chen Zong found that there was a hole hidden by vines in front of him, looming in front of him.

"This is the cave of the monster?"

Carefully looking at the surrounding traces, there were no footprints of demon beasts.

Shaking his head, Chen Zong still didn't enter the cave in the end, there may be dangers everywhere in the mountain, who knows if there will be any dangers in the cave that he can't deal with.

Bypass the hole and continue walking.

Thundered!

The dull sound seemed to ring in the ears, as if a giant beast was hiding in the dark clouds and let out an earth-shattering roar.

The mountain wind suddenly became violent, blowing from all directions, whining.

Click!

In front of him, there seemed to be a dazzling light, and in his ears, there was an amazing sound directly, and among the dark clouds, the blazing white lightning shuttled and shuttled, like an electric snake flying.

The dark clouds were low, the mountain wind was roaring, the lightning was dense, and the sky and the earth were dull.

This is clearly the prelude to the coming of the mountain rain.

Click!

A blazing white lightning shot down from the sky and slashed at a big tree a few hundred meters away, and the hundred-year-old tree was shattered in an instant under that lightning, leaving only half of the stump blackened.

A piece of scorched wood slammed down at Chen Zong's feet, and the slightest heat filled the air, scorching and choking.

"Really...... Terrifying power......" Chen Zong gasped and was shocked.

The power of heaven and earth, I don't know how many times it is better than manpower, and the power of that lightning cannot be compared even if a powerful martial artist who surpasses the qi and blood realm exerts all his strength.

"If my sword could be as swift and mighty as lightning...... Who in the world can stop ......" Chen Zong had a whim, and then shook his head and laughed again, he thought too much, manpower is always limited, no matter how fast and strong the sword he swings, how can it be compared to the lightning of the power of heaven and earth.

A drop of raindrops the size of peanuts fell on the face, and the next breath, the raindrops fell from the sky, but in just a few seconds, the sky and the earth were gray, and at a glance, countless raindrops fell in a line, and the sound was like a tide.

"Gotta find a place to hide from the rain. His eyes swept quickly, but he couldn't find shelter from the rain.

With his cultivation of the fifth layer of the Qi and Blood Realm, his body is far stronger than ordinary people, and he has a full body of Qi and blood, so it is completely okay to resist ordinary cold and heavy rain, but the situation is different in the mountains, not to mention that his injuries have not healed, and if he is not careful, he will also get sick.

"It's just that cave. ”

Now, I have to enter even if I don't want to enter, I just hope there is no danger inside.

The footsteps were fast, and he quickly swept before returning to the cave, and after confirming that he had found no traces of the demon beast's activities, he dodged in.

Wiping the rain off his face, Chen Zong looked into the cave, the light was dim, and he couldn't see far, but it was silent, and the noise of the torrential rain outside the cave was like two worlds.

After waiting for a while, the torrential rain not only showed no signs of stopping, but became more and more intense, thunder rolling, thunderbolts in the sky, and the sky and earth suddenly brightened and dimmed.

It seems that it will be inseparable for a while.

"Do you want to take a deeper look?" said secretly, Chen Zong didn't hesitate much, paced attentively, and walked slowly towards the cave, the true sword heaven was in operation, the power of qi and blood was transported, and the power was quietly condensed, ready to go.

The cave is not deep, about 20 meters out, it is a relatively wide cave belly, there is a height of five or six meters, irregular circle, and there is a size of fifty or sixty square meters.

"What is that?" Chen Zong vaguely saw that there seemed to be a stone slab in the corner of the cave, and there was a black shadow on the stone slab: "Human? or a demon beast?"

"Someone actually came here, tsk, a martial artist of the fifth layer of the Qi and Blood Realm, it just so happens that a body of Qi and Blood can allow me to heal some injuries. The cold and strange voice sounded, a little hoarse, and fell in his ears, which immediately made Chen Zong's scalp tingle, and without the slightest hesitation, he stepped back.

"If you're here, don't even think about leaving. The black shadow suddenly twisted, got up from the stone slab, and swam quickly like a python, bringing a gust of fishy wind to the face.

For a moment, Chen Zong had a feeling of facing a snake demon beast.

Why does a person make himself feel like he is facing snakes and monsters?

It's weird.

Chen Zong couldn't think too much, the black shadow was already approaching, and between the shaking of his hands, it was like a poisonous snake coming out of a hole, shooting out from the sleeves of his robe, like a snake's mouth, with a sizzling sound that made the scalp numb and the neck chill, hitting Chen Zong's throat and chest.

Without the fluctuations of the power of qi and blood, this is obviously a foundation-building martial art, but it has been cultivated to perfection, and it has the taste of a subtle realm, which brings a strong crisis and pressure to Chen Zong.

Difficulty breathing.

Hold your breath and stay in danger.

His right hand quickly grasped the hilt of the sword and drew it from its sheath.

The sword light was extremely dazzling, instantly illuminating the dim cave, bringing an astonishing momentum and extreme sharpness, like a waning moon tearing through the night sky, slashing towards the black shadow.

This sword is fast, accurate and steady, and there is a resolute and decisive ruthlessness.

After many life-and-death battles with demon beasts, Chen Zong unconsciously began to practice the ruthless words in the four-character swordsmanship, and had initial results.

This sword was beyond the expectations of the black shadow, and he never expected that a martial artist of the fifth layer of the Qi and Blood Realm would have such exquisite swordsmanship.

However, the black shadow has been through a hundred battles, and it is flexible, and its body twists, like a snake body turning, avoiding a sword slash, as if it is close to the sword light, the speed increases by one point again, and the hands change, like countless snake shadows shooting fiercely, hitting all parts of Chen Zong's body.

Chaotic sword style!

The iron sword flew like a butterfly piercing flowers, sharp and incomparable, blocking and shrouding the front, and the black shadow had to withdraw his hands.

In a flash, it disappeared from in front of Chen Zong and appeared on the side, one hand tilted up and down, as if hitting Chen Zong's head, and as if hitting the ribs, it was difficult to distinguish between true and false, and the other hand quietly gathered momentum, crossed a strange arc, and hit Chen Zong's back.

If you are attacked on three sides.

Step on the wind!

The figure was like the wind, blowing in an instant, and disappearing under the hands of the black shadow.

Step 2!

Approaching, sword!

The sword light condensed into a wisp, fast to the extreme.

Sword Style!

Piercing through the air, piercing through the darkness of the cave, with an astonishing momentum and sharpness, piercing the black shadow.

This sword、Too fast!

The black shadow couldn't dodge, and the black robe on his body was immediately torn, which also bought him a trace of opportunity, and his palm was like a snake's mouth, gently hitting the sword body, and the huge force broke the sword body, taking the opportunity to retreat.

"Boy, I didn't expect your swordsmanship to be very good, you must be a genius from some family. The voice of the black shadow sounded again, and there was even more of a kind of yin, revealing a strong killing intent: "What I like the most is to abuse family geniuses like you, drink up all your qi and blood, and make my cultivation stronger." ”

"Who are you?" Chen Zong frowned, no matter how loud or in tone this person spoke, he gave himself a very uncomfortable feeling, and even made it impossible to tell whether the black shadow in front of him was a human or a demon beast.

After all, I have never heard of any martial artist who will suck human blood to improve his cultivation, and that method is too evil.

"Ugly ......" the dark shadow monster laughed: "Who am I, you don't need to know, with your questions, unwilling to die." ”
